dock yard secrets had been revealed
reached the Admiralty through a work
published for private circulation among
officials of the American navy. From
statements also made in journals it was
evident that treacnery had been rampant
not only IN Chatham but at Penn broke,
Portsmouth, heyham and Deven-
port. II was then discov-
cred that not only descriptions
OF plans but even reproductions OF the
working drawings OF the details OF
British ships under construction had
been disclosed. A disclosure was traced
to Chatham. Terry forwarded his Infor.
nation by post and received payment
In return by check. The denial of the
American Legation is perfectly believed,
but there are two marine intelligence de-
partmsnts in London which are actively
engaged In the interests OF the Ameri-
can government, One is attached to the
bureau or construction at
Washington and the other to
the bureau of navigation. The latter
denies that 1t received Information from
Ferry. The former has always been
careful, In numerous transactions OF this
nature, TO pay only hard cash tor inf0r

availed themselves OF this means OF OBJ
